byenow Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 i dont have the money to buy a new or used swinder nor do i have a decent priced chromer around kokomo indiana i was wondering if anyone has taken a grinder to it and cut anything or smoothed out the welds a bit more any ideas would be appreciated thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickisGod Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 honestly no. dont bother trying to make it look better, a stock swingarm isnt even worth its weight in scarp. i understand not being able to afford a aftermarket one, we've all been there. my suggestion is to save up and try to find a good used one, u should have no problem finding a low hour part out on the site. as far as cosmetics go for the stocker, powder coat it. thats as best as youll get.

We finally found a guy with a blown up Banshee and borrowed his kicker. (I told Nick it wouldn't take long till one of the many Banshees blow up.) LOL I might try and go in October. (We have a trip planned for THIS weekend. Sept. 21-22-23) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
